@RoxRocks86 hell yeah!

Loving this one for these warmer days. We’ve still got a healthy amount of stock of anyone who may have missed out.

@ShopatIronHeart or anyone else; any input on if this wears cooler or is more breathable compared to the IHSH-96?
-
Wearing mine for the first time today and this thing is pretty crunchy but airy, I love it. Especially compared to the older 5oz 60/40 chambray. Didn't think the extra 2oz would be that different but definitely a completely different hand feel between the two. Glad I grabbed this, gonna be a spring staple for me. Curious to see how it wears once we start getting up into the 90's though.

@pechelman I would say that the 433 is going to be a cooler and more breathable wear. Also might feel better on the skin in warmer climates as its has a lot less texture.
I hope this helps!

Initially I thought that I was between two sizes but on release day re measured a shirt that fit me well, the only measurements tht didn’t align with the S were the sleeves. Set a reminder for the drop and pre wrote a note to the IH crew to request longer sleeve. It dropped at 16:00; 16:03 order completed.
Many thanks to @Freeman for finding this one and confirming measurements with me before sending.
First wear today in the office. Respectably tucked in this morning with a more relaxed vibe in the afternoon.
Really appreciate the service once again and really happy with the fit.

@Oaktavia Looking amazing dude! Forgive me if you've been asked this elsewhere, but do you just hit the sleeves with a spray bottle and then just wear as normal to encourage natural pattern formation?
-
@phoenixinflight yes that is exactly what I do or just dry my hands on them it works like a charm

I own both this and the 96. Obviously I haven’t worn this that much (and not in warm weather), so please take that into account.
The fabrics are very different. The 96 is much thicker, but also much looser in the weave. My guess (completely unscientific) is that the 96 is warmer, but also that it is less windproof. I’m not sure about breathability, but my money would be on the 96.
The best comparison I can think of is to compare it to layering pieces. The 96 is more like an insulating layer - packs more warmth, but is more susceptible to wind - whereas this is more of a shell layer, with less warmth but more wind resistance.
I hope it makes sense - the fabrics are very different so direct comparison is difficult.

@Cymro what a great look from top to bottom!
-
@Oaktavia Much appreciated. I guess the linen content gives this some tea towel energy so I can definitely picture drying ones hands on it, haha. I've got one of these on the way so I'm excited! Will be great to have a fade project for warmer weather and I think this will be perfect for the hot/humid summers in Australia. Can't wait to see the fabric in person. I generally backpack with a 100% linen towel. Incredibly strong and great antibacterial properties too! Thanks to everybody for sharing photos - that pushed me over the line as initially I wasn't too drawn to anything in the SS26 collection.
-
@phoenixinflight right on dude, let us know what you think!
-
@jimcord thank you

Finally got to wear mine last night. Went without a shirt underneath, felt like linen more than cotton on the skin with the initial crisp/stiffness of linen. Wife said it looked like all the other shirts I owned, only to agree I didn’t have anything like it when she went through the closet. Was comfortable in the 80 degree heat of Atlanta in it
Anyone know how rolling sleeves will impact fading etc?
